Description sedrubal 2015-03-23 09:54:09 UTC
There is a folder on a remote pc which I access through sftp. This folder has some strange file permissions because it self is on a mount (I think samba, but not sure). The permissions are:
    $ > ls -l $folder
    drwxrwxr-- 3 nobody nogroup
    $ > id nobody
    uid=65534(nobody) gid=65534(nogroup) groups=65534(nogroup)
    $ > id $USER
    uid=1020($USER) gid=100(users) groups=100(users)
(If it was 777 I could delete it)

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
I couldn't reproduce it, because I'm no admin of the pc and I couldn't manage it to reproduce it on one of my servers as there is no samba or cross mounting.

Actual Results:  
Error Message:
Internal Error
Please send a full bug report at http://bugs.kde.org
sftp://$USER@$SERVER/$PATH_TO_BROKEN_DIR

Expected Results:  
Error Message:
Access denied
(As it appeares, when  you delete a folder you don't have permissions to do this)

The parent folder mount looks like this:
    > $ mount
    /dev/mapper/msa20-storage on /mnt/storage type xfs (rw)

Thanks for the bug report!

I'll reassign it to KIO-extras.

Do you think it was important that the remote directory was on a mount?

The way I see it that should be all the same to ssh, in the end the permissions you documented would prevent you from deleting that folder on a POSIX level as well, so I would think that the access-denied error condition simply wasn't mapped to a pretty string in sftp. It is now however, so this should be solved in (at least) 19.12+
